Welcome to
Columbus
Welcome to the 76th Annual
Columbus Spring Pilgrimage
The Columbus Spring Pilgrimage is an
award-winning event that has been widely
recognized as one of the best and most authentic
home tours in the South. The antebellum mansions
of Columbus are impeccably maintained and
as resplendent as ever. Many home tours feature
recreated activities of the 1800s, complete with
period costumes, which add excitement and even
more authenticity to this historic event. It’s an
experience visitors will long remember!
Driving and walking tours and Columbus
informational brochures are available at the
Tennessee Williams Home and Welcome Center –
located at 300 Main Street. This Victorian structure
is the first home of renowned playwright Tennessee
Williams – winner of the Pulitzer Prize for
A Streetcar Named Desire and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.

Participate in the third annual Columbus Pilgrimage
Half-Marathon and 5K. Whether you’re a novice runner or
seasoned athlete, this great race is not to be missed. The halfmarathon unwinds on a scenic course that takes you along
the Tombigbee River bed and ends at the historic river bridge
while the 5K loops through some of the South’s most beautiful,
historic neighborhoods.
7 AM Start - Half-Marathon / 8 AM Start - 5K
The name “Catfish Alley” recalls a time in the 1800s when
African American fishermen would catch catfish in the
Tombigbee River along First Street and bring the fish to
Fourth Street, where it would be fried and sold. The aroma of
catfish cooking permeated the air; and soon, the alley became
known as a hub for thriving African-American businesses,
blues music, and delicious food.
Now, nearly 200 years later, the
alley will once again be filled with
the sounds of blues and smell of
catfish cooking as thousands of
residents and visitors gather for
this festival, which celebrates the
many achievements of AfricanAmericans in Columbus and
Lowndes County.
Throughout the day, guests will
have the opportunity to enjoy
Mississippi-raised catfish, as well
as entertainment. Outstanding
blues musicians throughout
Mississippi will once again be
performing. These musicians
have performed throughout
Mississippi, the South, and in
several European countries.
Catfish in the Alley® is free and open to the public. Food and
beverage will be available for purchase that day, as well as tickets for a nominal fee to serve as a judge in the catfish cook-off.

filled with art and antiques. In 1900, the Mayor of Columbus, David
McClanahan, purchased the home and incorporated the old kitchen

bedroom where he hid his liquor from his teetotaling wife.

OLE HOMESTEAD
302 College Street
The Ole Homestead is a
vernacular raised cottage probably
constructed by Charles Abert when
he moved to Columbus in 1825. It
was originally two rooms over two
rooms facing the Tombigbee River.
In 1835, Abert sold the home to
John Kirk who added an east wing facing College Street. It is the oldest
building remaining within the original corporate limits of Columbus and
among the oldest raised-cottage houses in Mississippi. Former residents
include Congressman H S Bennett and Confederate surgeon James
Hopkins. The historic landmark received the 2014 Trudy Allen Award for
residential restoration in Mississippi from the Mississippi Heritage Trust.
Circa 1825 / Mr. and Mrs. Rufus Ward / National Register
The Cedars
1305 Military Road
Legend has it the county’s gold
and silver were once stored here,
but history is the real treasure
in the home believed to be the
oldest surviving house in north
Mississippi, first built as a oneroom log cabin with loft around
1818. Captain Edward Randolph, a soldier in the War of 1812, enlarged
and enhanced the Cedars to suit his station, an elegant evolution still
preserved in the courtly welcome of the graceful columned veranda
that opens the way to charming features like the exposed log wall of the
parlor.
Circa 1810 / Mr. Bob Raymond / National Register
Butterworth
Cottage
115 5th Avenue South
Butterworth is one of only two
dog-trot houses known to have
survived within the current city
limits. It was constructed in the 1820s. Oral tradition says that the house
had once been located downtown and had been moved to its present
location around 1900. The house was constructed as two 16-foot-by-16foot log rooms with a breezeway between them.

SPECIAL FRIENDS of the Foundation
Columbus Air Force Base: Located seven miles north of Main Street, CAFB is
one of the Air Force’s crown jewels in the Southeast. One third of all U.S. Air Force
pilots receive their initial pilot training in Columbus, earning their coveted “silver
wings.” The base began in the early 1940s as an Army Air Corps pilot training
base and was closed from WWII’s end until 1951, when the Korean War brought
it back to life. During the Cold War, its runways trembled under roaring B-52s;
but in 1969, the base returned to its original role of training the world’s best
pilots and warriors. As home to the 14th Flying Training Wing, CAFB is one of the
busiest airfields in the Air Force and, on occasion, accommodates a space shuttle
ferry flight. With a population of nearly 3,000 military and civilian personnel,
CAFB members stand ready to deploy across the world at a moment’s notice.
Because of the current security restrictions, the base cannot accommodate
visitors. For more information, visit www.columbus.af.mil.
Mississippi University for Women: A tradition of excellence for women and
men. Established in 1884 and welcoming men since 1982, The W was founded
as the first public college for women in the United States. The W’s beautiful
and historic campus is one of the nation’s most architecturally distinguished,
with 23 of its more than 60 buildings listed on the National Register of Historic
Places. The W has a national reputation for academic excellence. U.S. News &
World Report has consistently ranked The W as a best value or best buy based on
the combination of excellent academic programs and affordable cost. For more
information or a tour of campus, please call the Office of Admissions.

cities. Sports enthusiasts can enjoy fishing, water sports and outdoor activities.

hospitality. • 800.457.9739 • www.tenntom.org
Stephen D. Lee Home: The Stephen D. Lee Home was built in 1847 by Major
Thomas Garton Blewett, a prominent early citizen of Columbus. The house and
its outbuildings originally occupied the entire city block. It became the last home
of General Stephen Dill Lee who married Major Blewett’s granddaughter, Regina
Harrison. General Lee was instrumental in the establishment of the Vicksburg
National Military Park and of Mississippi State University, where he served as the
University’s first president. The house is furnished with many original decorative
pieces and furniture, which were returned to the house by the Lee descendants.
The Florence McLeod Hazard Museum, a local history museum, is located on the
second floor of the home and is comprised of a collection of artifacts and memorabilia of the Blewett and Lee families as well as a Civil War collection. Also on
the second floor is a bedroom that has been restored and furnished with original
Lee family pieces. The Lee Home is on the National Register of Historic Places
and is a Mississippi Landmark. The Lee Home also serves as an educational and
cultural center for the community. • 316 7th Street North • 662.327.8888 •
